+Exams are easily one of the most daunting endeavours a student faces
+at St Andrews. Yet, with some straightforward preparation, they are
+not as difficult as they might first seem. Exams can be categorized by
+two metrics:
+
+* In-person _v._ take-home exams
+* Technical answers _v._ written answers
+
+## In-person exams
+
+In-person exams require you to _memorize_ information, so that you can
+recall it in the exam and answer on the basis of this knowledge. You
+might be required to memorize course content (e.g., theorems,
+processes, or different case studies) or be required be familiar with
+a reading list, which questions might be asked about.
+
+## Take home exams
+
+## Technical answers (Maths, Physics, etc.)
+
+## Written answers (Philosophy, Art History, etc.)
